There are four makeup products that I would be lost if I didn’t have. I use these four products together almost every day for going to class, and hanging out BUT I also use them when I do go out so they’re multi-purposeful!
The first product is the Smashbox Camera Ready BB Cream that I use as a base on my face. If you don’t know what BB Cream it’s basically a cream that serves as a foundation, moisturizer, and sunscreen all at once! This is amazing if you don’t want something too heavy or cakey and want a more natural look. I use it in the shade light, because I am very fair skinned. Another amazing feature it has is that it has SPF 35 which is also perfect for me because I burn really easily. You can buy it on the Smashbox website for $42.00 with no shipping and no taxes. I know it is a little pricey but I promise you it’s so worth it and you won’t regret it.
My next all time favorite product would be my concealer which is the Nars Radiant Creamy Concealer in the shade Crème Brûlée. It has so much coverage and blends really well. Their website calls it the #1 Concealer in the U.S. and I would have to agree! You can find it on the Nars website for $30.00 which is pretty reasonable if you are looking for a name brand concealer.
The next product that I am obsessed with is my Mascara from Maybelline. Its full name is The Falsies Push Up Angel Washable Mascara which is in the color very black. You can get this on the Maybelline website for just $10.49 but you can go to other stores like Walmart or CVS and get it for an even lower price. I have never liked any name brand mascara enough to keep buying it so I turned to the drug store mascaras and fell in love with this one. It volumizes my lashes so much without making them look clumpy like a lot of mascaras do. It’s a really great mascara if you don’t like anything too dramatic, like me.
My last product is the gimme brow+ volumizing eyebrow gel from Benefit Cosmetics. It comes in eight different shades that way there is a shade that can work for everyone. I use the Neutral light brown which is almost perfect for my eyebrows. The reason I am so in love with this product is because it gives a very natural look, almost as if there is nothing on it. I love the natural, not over the top look on brows because my eyebrows are already so prominent and this gel is perfect. It tames the brows while also giving them a slight tint that is waterproof and long lasting. On the Benefit website, this products comes out to $24.00, but the product lasts forever and is definitely worth the price.
Now that you have read about my favorite products, I highly recommend you try that out! I am definitely not a professional makeup artist, but if you’re pretty average at doing your own makeup and like a very natural look, these are the products for you!
